Fluttershy was walking in the Everfree forest and singing the song. She was a little afraid of this place, that's why she was singing. Fluttershy was collecting the flowers and suddenly she heard something. She turned around but didn't see anything. Now she began panicking. Then she heard another noise, which was closer. When she heard it the third time, she yelped and ran away. But the lasso wrapped her around the belly and she stopped in her tracks. Fluttershy turned around and saw two stallions, who were approaching her. One of them was holding the lasso.

"What do you want?" asked Fluttershy. One of them said:

"We just want to play with you." He smiled and Fluttershy began trying to free herself from the ropes. Suddenly she felt the pain in her head and fell to the ground unconscious.

"Hey, what the hell are you doing?"

"Relax. That's to make sure that she won't escape. C'mon, we need to drag her to our camp."

1 hour later

The sun began setting down and bandits were dragging Fluttershy to their camp. She woke up and looked around. After the realization, she shouted:

"Release me!"

"Don't scream. Nobody will hear you," said the stallion. Fluttershy silenced and began sobbing. She began thinking about her friends, family who won't find her anymore. Soon they were in camp. Fluttershy looked around and saw two stallions who approached her. She closed her eyes and began crying. One of them slapped her.

"Shut up!" She fell on the ground and sobbed.

"Hehe, beautiful one," said one of them. Then she felt that somepony lifted her head and saw the fourth stallion.

"Now, you will be a good girl, and do what we say, understand?" She kept silent. Suddenly everypony heard the rustling and turned to the source. Fluttershy's pupils shrieked when she saw him. The metal creature was starring right at them. Then it said:

"Get a good look. It's the last time when you will see me." Those words made goosebumps ran through her skin.

Revenant

Simulacrum was starring at his victims. He was planning to kill them painfully but decided to see what are they capable of. Soon the leader asked:

"What the fuck are you?" Revenant looked at him and said:

"I am the nightmare." Suddenly Revenant felt that something hit him. He looked down and saw a knife, which was thrown by another stallion. Their eyes widened when they saw that the knife didn't even leave the scratch on him. Revenant looked at his enemies and said:

"I was expecting more." With those words, he began slowly approaching them. Two stallions charged at Revenant but he pounced them with his hands and pulled out their hearts.

"I want your hearts. I can slice them up for a snack. Mmmm..." said Revenant. Meanwhile, the third one showed his horn and shot at Revenant the beam of magic, but...it didn't affect him. He looked at the spot, where the beam hit him and then at the unicorn.

"My turn." With those words, Revenant threw his sphere which exploded and paralyzed the stallion. He tried to use the magic, but he couldn't. Suddenly he felt the sharp pain in his stomach. His eyes widened when he saw that Revenant was pulling out his guts. He screamed in agony and tried to do something. Soon he died. Painfully.

"I am out of here!" shouted the last one and ran away. Revenant turned to him and disappeared. Soon Fluttershy the scream of pain and tried to don't listen to this. Soon she heard the silence. She opened her eyes and she saw a creature who was staring right at her. He lifted his hand and Fluttershy's eyes widened when she saw a severed head. She fainted. Revenant sighed and said:

"Great. Now I need to wait when this skin bag wakes up." Revenant began looting dead bodies and found only some golden coins, a dagger and a bag. Then he cut off everyone's heads and put them in his bag like trophies. But when he began cutting off the last head, the dagger broke and Revenant threw it. Suddenly he noticed the trail which was leading to somewhere. Revenant grabbed mare's leg and began dragging her. After a few minutes of walking, Revenant saw a tree with windows and a door. He left Fluttershy on the ground and sneaked to the house. He looked inside and saw nobody. He grabbed the door handle and was surprised when he opened the door, which meant that the owner was stupid enough to leave it unlocked. When he entered the house, he was met by the shelves with many spells and strange liquids, a table with a chair, bed, etc. He began searching for something interesting but found nothing. He wanted to exit the house but stopped when he saw a knife. It was a well-sharped knife with a sturdy handle. If he had a mouth, Revenant would smile when he imagined how he will kill everyone with it. He put in his bag and came out of the building. He continued his way on the trail dragging unconscious mare.

Zecora

Zecora was walking in the forest and heading to her home. She was looking around and listening to every sound. Suddenly she tripped over and fell to the ground. She got up on her legs and looked down. Her eyes widened when she saw a headless stallion. Then she noticed a blood trail that was leading to somewhere. When she came out of bushes, she nearly threw up when she got a view of the camp. Two headless bodies with a hole in their chest and one stallion was gutted.

"Oh Celestia, who did such a mess? I should find it before it made somepony lifeless," she said. With those words, she headed to her home. When she approached it, she noticed that her door was slightly opened. She pulled out the dagger and looked inside. She saw nobody. Zecora entered the house and found nothing suspicious. Suddenly she noticed that her knife was missing. She was using it for making wooden figures. Zecora exited the house and saw something that caught her attention. It was a light pink hair on the ground. Zecora's eyes widened when she recognized who it belongs. She quickly ran into the direction of Ponyville to get help.

"I need to save my mate before it's too late."
